Bilombe 13
1 Bana ya Isalaele basalaki lisusu mabe na miso ya Yawe, mpe Yawe akabaki bango mibu tuku minei na maboko ya bato ya Filisitia.
Bvt the children of Israel continued to commit wickednesse in the sight of the Lord, and the Lord deliuerd them into the handes of the Philistims fourtie yeere.
2 Ezalaki na mobali moko, moto ya Tsorea, ya libota ya Dani, kombo na ye ezalaki Manoa; mwasi na ye azalaki ekomba, mpe abotelaki ye bana te.
Then there was a man in Zorah of the familie of the Danites, named Manoah, whose wife was baren, and bare not.
3 Anjelu na Yawe abimelaki mwasi ya Manoa mpe alobaki: « Tala, ozali ekomba mpe ozali na bana te, kasi okokoma na zemi mpe okobota mwana mobali.
And the Angel of the Lord appeared vnto the woman, and said vnto her, Beholde nowe, thou art baren, and bearest not: but thou shalt conceiue, and beare a sonne.
4 Sik’oyo, sala keba! Komela vino te to masanga mosusu ya makasi, mpe kolia te eloko nyonso ya mbindo;
And nowe therefore beware that thou drinke no wine, nor strong drinke, neither eate any vncleane thing.
5 pamba te okozwa zemi mpe okobota mwana mobali. Bakoki te kokata suki ya moto na ye, pamba te mwana mobali yango akozala bule mpo na Nzambe wuta na libumu ya mama na ye. Akobanda kokangola Isalaele wuta na maboko ya bato ya Filisitia. »
For loe, thou shalt conceiue and beare a sonne, and no rasor shall come on his head: for the childe shall be a Nazarite vnto God from his birth: and he shall begin to saue Israel out of the handes of the Philistims.
6 Tango mwasi azongaki epai ya mobali na ye, ayebisaki ye: « Moto moko ya Nzambe ayaki epai na ngai, azalaki lokola Anjelu na Nzambe: azalaki somo mingi. Natunaki ye te soki awuti wapi, mpe ayebisaki ngai te kombo na ye.
Then the wife came, and tolde her husband, saying, A man of God came vnto me, and the facion of him was like the facion of the Angel of God exceeding feareful, but I asked him not whence he was, neither told he me his name,
7 Kasi alobaki na ngai: ‹ Okozwa zemi mpe okobota mwana mobali. Bongo komela vino to masanga mosusu ya makasi te mpe kolia eloko moko te ya mbindo, pamba te mwana mobali oyo okobota akozala bule mpo na Nzambe wuta na libumu ya mama na ye kino na mokolo na ye ya kufa. › »
But he saide vnto me, Beholde, thou shalt conceiue, and beare a sonne, and nowe thou shalt drinke no wine, nor strong drinke, neither eate any vncleane thing: for the childe shalbe a Nazarite to God from his birth to the day of his death.
8 Bongo Manoa asambelaki Yawe: « Oh Nkolo, nabondeli Yo: tika ete ozongisa lisusu moto na Nzambe, oyo otindelaki biso, mpo ete aya lisusu koteya biso nini tosengeli kosala mpo na mwana mobali oyo akobotama! »
Then Manoah prayed to the Lord and saide, I pray thee, my Lord, Let the man of God, whome thou sentest, come againe nowe vnto vs, and teach vs what we shall doe vnto the child when he is borne.
9 Nzambe ayokaki Manoa, mpe Anjelu na Nzambe ayaki lisusu epai ya mwasi, wana avandaki na bilanga. Kasi mobali na ye, Manoa, azalaki elongo na ye te.
And God heard the voyce of Manoah, and the Angel of God came againe vnto the wife, as she sate in the fielde, but Manoah her husband was not with her.
10 Mwasi ya Manoa akendeki mbangu koyebisa mobali na ye: « Tala, namoni moto oyo abimelaki ngai na mikolo oyo eleki! »
And the wife made haste and ranne, and shewed her husband and sayde vnto him, Behold, the man hath appeared vnto me, that came vnto me to day.
11 Manoa atelemaki mpe alandaki mwasi na ye. Tango akomaki epai ya moto yango, alobaki: — Boni, ezali yo nde osololaki na mwasi na ngai? Azongisaki: — Iyo, ezali ngai.
And Manoah arose and went after his wife, and came to the man, and saide vnto him, Art thou the man that spakest vnto the woman? and he said, Yea.
12 Manoa atunaki ye: — Tango maloba na yo ekokokisama, mibeko nini tosengeli kotosa mpo na bomoi ya mwana? Mpe ye mwana asengeli kosala nini?
Then Manoah sayde, Nowe let thy saying come to passe: but howe shall we order the childe and doe vnto him?
13 Anjelu na Yawe azongiselaki Manoa: — Mwasi na yo asengeli kosala makambo nyonso oyo nayebisaki ye.
And the Angell of the Lord saide vnto Manoah, The woman must beware of all that I said vnto her.
14 Akolia eloko moko te oyo ewuti na nzete ya vino, akomela vino te to masanga mosusu ya makasi, akolia eloko moko te ya mbindo; asengeli kosala makambo nyonso oyo natindi ye.
She may eate of nothing that commeth of the vinetree: she shall not drinke wine nor strong drinke, nor eate any vncleane thing: let her obserue all that I haue commanded her.
15 Manoa alobaki na Anjelu na Yawe: — Soki okoki kozela mwa moke, wana tozali kobongisela yo mwana ntaba.
Manoah then said vnto the Angell of the Lord, I pray thee, let vs reteine thee, vntill we haue made readie a kid for thee.
16 Anjelu na Nzambe azongiselaki Manoa: — Ata ozelisi ngai, nakolia ata eloko na yo moko te; kasi soki obongisi mbeka ya kotumba, bonzela yango nde Yawe. Manoa asosolaki te ete oyo azali liboso na ye azali Anjelu na Yawe.
And the Angel of the Lord said vnto Manoah, Though thou make me abide, I will not eate of thy bread, and if thou wilt make a burnt offring, offer it vnto the Lord: for Manoah knewe not that it was an Angel of the Lord.
17 Manoa atunaki Anjelu na Yawe: — Kombo na yo nani mpo ete topesa yo lokumu tango elaka na yo ekokokisama?
Againe Manoah said vnto the Angell of the Lord, What is thy name, that when thy saying is come to passe, we may honour thee?
18 Anjelu na Yawe azongiselaki ye: — Mpo na nini ozali kotuna ngai kombo na ngai? Kombo na ngai ezali kombo ya kokamwa.
And the Angell of the Lord saide vnto him, Why askest thou thus after my name, which is secret?
19 Boye Manoa azwaki mwana ntaba elongo na mbeka ya gato, abonzaki yango na likolo ya libanga, liboso ya Yawe. Wana Manoa mpe mwasi na ye bazalaki kotala, Yawe asalaki likambo moko ya kokamwa.
Then Manoah tooke a kid with a meate offering, and offered it vpon a stone vnto the Lord: and the Angell did wonderously, whiles Manoah and his wife looked on.
20 Ndenge moto ezalaki komata na likolo longwa na etumbelo, Anjelu na Yawe mpe amataki kati na moto. Tango bamonaki bongo, Manoa mpe mwasi na ye bakweyaki bilongi kino na mabele.
For when the flame came vp toward heauen from the altar, the Angel of the Lord ascended vp in the flame of the altar, and Manoah and his wife behelde it, and fell on their faces vnto the grounde.
21 Tango Anjelu na Yawe alimwaki na miso ya Manoa mpe ya mwasi na ye, Manoa asosolaki ete ezalaki Anjelu ya Yawe.
(So the Angel of the Lord did no more appeare vnto Manoah and his wife.) Then Manoah knewe that it was an Angel of the Lord.
22 Manoa alobaki na mwasi na ye: — Solo, tokufi na biso, pamba te tomoni Nzambe!
And Manoah said vnto his wife, We shall surely dye, because we haue seene God.
23 Kasi mwasi na ye azongisaki: — Soki Yawe asepelaki koboma biso, akokaki kondima te mbeka ya kotumba mpe mbeka ya gato oyo esalemi na maboko na biso to kolakisa biso makambo oyo nyonso to mpe koyebisa biso sik’oyo makambo oyo.
But his wife saide vnto him, If the Lord woulde kill vs, he woulde not haue receiued a burnt offring, and a meate offring of our hands, neither would he haue shewed vs all these things, nor would now haue tolde vs any such.
24 Mwasi ya Manoa abotaki mwana mobali mpe apesaki ye kombo « Samison. » Mwana akolaki, mpe Yawe apambolaki ye.
And the wife bare a sonne, and called his name Samson: and the childe grewe, and the Lord blessed him.
25 Molimo na Yawe abandaki kosalela ye tango azalaki na Maane Dani, na kati-kati ya Tsorea mpe Eshitaoli.
And the Spirite of the Lord beganne to strengthen him in the host of Dan, betweene Zorah, and Eshtaol.
